DISCHARGE AND DISCIPLINARY ACTION 10.01 A claim by an employee that he has been discharged or suspended, without just cause, shall be a proper subject for a grievance. Such a grievance shall be submitted in writing to the Employer at Step Two within ten (10) working days after the employee receives notice that he has ceased to work for the Employer or has been notified of the suspension, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the time limits contained in Article 9.03 Step Two, the Parties will meet in attempt to resolve the grievance within five (5) working days of said grievance being filed at Step Two. 10.02 It is understood that an employee has the right to Union representation by a shop xxxxxxx or other Union Officer when discipline is given.

Should an employee dispute any such entry in his/her file, he/she shall be entitled to recourse through the Grievance Procedure and the eventual resolution thereof shall become part of his/her personal record.
Causes for Disciplinary Action For purposes of this article, disciplinary action shall mean an unpaid suspension not to exceed thirty
Notice of Disciplinary Action The Employer shall advise an Employee in writing of any disciplinary action taken including, but not limited to warning, reprimand, suspension, discharge or termination and the reasons in full for such action, at the time of taking any such action. The Employer shall also promptly provide the Union with a copy of each such disciplinary notice. If the matter is grieved by the Union, or otherwise litigated in any manner, the Employer shall be limited to those grounds (reasons) specified in the disciplinary notice for the action(s) taken.
Disciplinary Action (A) An employee who has attained permanent status in his current position may be disciplined only for cause. (B) An employee who has not attained permanent status in his current position shall not have access to the grievance procedure in Article 6 when disciplined. (C) Each employee shall be furnished a copy of all disciplinary actions placed in his official personnel file and shall be permitted to respond thereto. (D) An employee may request that a PBA Staff Representative be present during any disciplinary investigation meeting in which the employee is being questioned relative to alleged misconduct of the employee, or during a predetermination conference in which suspension or dismissal of the employee is being considered. (E) Letters of counseling or counseling notices are documentation of minor work deficiencies or conduct concerns that are not discipline and are not grievable; however, such documentation may be used by the parties at an administrative hearing involving an employee’s discipline to demonstrate the employee was on notice of the performance deficiencies or conduct concerns. (F) If filed within 21 calendar days following the date of receipt of notice from the DHSMV, by personal delivery or by certified mail, return receipt requested, an employee with permanent status in his current position may appeal a reduction in base pay, involuntary transfer of over 50 miles by highway, suspension, demotion, or dismissal to the Public Employees Relations Commission under the provisions of section 110.227(5) and (6), F.S. In the alternative, such actions may be grieved at Step 2 and processed through the Arbitration Step without review at Step 3, in accordance with the grievance procedure in Article 6 of this Agreement. The DHSMV may have special compensatory leave equal to the length of a disciplinary suspension deducted from an employee’s leave balance in lieu of serving the suspension. An employee may indicate his preference as to whether to serve the suspension or to have special compensatory leave deducted, which preference shall be taken into consideration by the DHSMV in making its decision. If the employee does not have sufficient special compensatory leave, annual leave may be deducted. If there is not sufficient special compensatory or annual leave, the remainder of the period will be leave without pay. Employees from whom leave is deducted will continue to report for duty. The employee’s personnel file will reflect a disciplinary suspension regardless of whether the employee serves the suspension or has leave deducted. (G) Oral reprimands are not grievable. A written reprimand shall be subject to the grievance procedure in Article 6 if the employee has attained permanent status in his current position; the decision is final and binding at Step 2.
Constructive Discharge If at any time during the term of this Agreement, except in connection with a termination pursuant to paragraph (c) (TERMINATION FOR CAUSE) of this Section 5, the Executive is Constructively Discharged (as hereinafter defined) then the Executive shall have the right, by written notice to the Employer within sixty (60) days of the initial existence of such Constructive Discharge condition, to terminate his services hereunder, effective as of the thirtieth (30th) day after such notice, and the Executive shall have no rights or obligations under this Agreement other than as provided in Sections 4 and 8 hereof; provided, however, the Employer shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice in which to cure the condition giving rise to a Constructive Discharge, if curable. If, during such thirty (30) day period, the Employer cures the condition giving rise to Constructive Discharge, then the Executive’s notice of termination hereunder shall not be effective, the Executive’s employment shall continue until otherwise terminated under this Agreement, and no benefits shall be due under this Agreement with respect to such occurrence. If the Employer fails to cure the condition giving rise to Constructive Discharge within such thirty (30) day period, the Executive shall be entitled to a lump sum payment of compensation and benefits and continuation of all plans and benefits as if such termination of his employment was pursuant to subparagraph (a)(i) of this Section 5 to be paid within thirty (30) days of the Executive’s termination of employment. (i) For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive shall be “Constructively Discharged” upon the occurrence of any one of the following events: (A) The Executive is not re-elected or is removed from the positions with the Employer or any affiliate set forth in Section 1 hereof, other than as a result of the Executive’s election or appointment to positions of equal or superior scope and responsibility; or (B) The Executive shall fail to be vested by the Employer with the powers and authority of his appointed office; or (C) The Employer changes the primary employment location of the Executive to a place that is more than thirty (30) miles from the primary employment location as of the Effective Date of this Agreement; or (D) The Employer otherwise commits a material breach of its obligations under this Agreement.

When an employee is discharged or suspended, he shall be given the reason in the presence of his Xxxxxxx. Such employee and the Union shall be advised promptly in writing by the Corporation of the reason for such discharge or suspension. 13.04 A grievance claiming unjust discharge or suspension shall be submitted in writing to the Director of Human Resources within five (5) days of the date that the Union and the Xxxxxxx have been notified in writing of such discharge or suspension and it shall commence at Step 2 of the grievance procedure. 13.05 Should it be found upon investigation that an employee has been unjustly suspended or discharged, such employee shall be immediately reinstated in his former position without loss of seniority and shall be compensated for all time lost in an amount equal to his normal earnings during the pay period next preceding such discharge or suspension, or by any other arrangement as to compensation which is just and equitable in the opinion of the Parties or in the opinion of a Board of Arbitration, if the matter is referred to such a Board. 13.06 Any disciplinary notation or warning in writing shall be removed from an employee's record after a period of eighteen (18) months in which he has not received any disciplinary warning or suspension. The Employer shall provide any disciplinary letter within a reasonable period of time. In the case of any unreasonable delay in issuing such letter, the parties may by strict mutual agreement revise the date of issuance accordingly.
